- Choose fresh, firm asparagus stalks for the best texture and flavor.
- Trim off the woody ends of the asparagus before wrapping them in prosciutto.
- You can blanch the asparagus for 1-2 minutes in boiling water and then immerse them in ice water to ensure a vibrant green color and tender-crisp texture before wrapping.
- Experiment with different types of prosciutto or cured ham depending on your taste preference.
- For an extra layer of flavor, drizzle a bit of olive oil or balsamic glaze over the asparagus before baking.
- Keep an eye on the oven to avoid overcooking the prosciutto, as it can easily turn too crisp.
